The actual cost of Medical Insurance over Socialized

Post by Doodoo » June 4, 2022, 11:45 am

For sometime there has been discussions of what is better Private or Socialized Medical Insurances.

I personally vote for the Socialized reason being that if your ill regardless of race , age , sex etc you should be able to walk in and receive the Medical help that is needed.

Here is an example of Private Insurance at its best ripping off the public

"I work in durable medical equipment, like braces for your knee or wrist. People get so angry that they are getting charged $500 for a brace they could have bought at Walgreens for $20. We, the DME company, do not set the rates that get billed to insurance. The insurance company does. We have to follow their set guidelines for billing and the prices they negotiate. Pretty much every problem in healthcare can be tracked back to insurance companies' greed."

I don't think it's a case of either / or. More a continuum.
